Human Services, shall make grants to public and nonprofit private

    receive treatment for child abuse or neglect, provide transitional 
    services (including individual, group, and family counseling) to 
    juvenile offenders--
            (A) to strengthen the relationships of juvenile offenders 
        with their families and encourage the resolution of intrafamily 
        problems related to the abuse or neglect;
            (B) to facilitate their alternative placement; and
            (C) to prepare juveniles aged 16 years and older to live 
        independently; and

        (3) carry out research (including surveys of existing 
    transitional services, identification of exemplary treatment 
    modalities, and evaluation of treatment and transitional services) 
    provided with grants made under this section.
